The Company

If you really need convincing...

I'm going to go out on a line here and say that you love fishing. The team at Snapper Fishing Charters are here for you, with a reel treat of a full day of fishing on the Hauraki Gulf for just $55.

This treat includes rod hire, tackle and tea and coffee. Just bring some bait & a chilly bin to store your catch and you're sorted. Charters are available from Monday to Friday, and take it from me - there's nothing better than being out fishing when everyone else is stuck at work!

The day trips leave the Westhaven Marina at 7am, and you'll get back at 4pm. You'll be fishing off the M.V. Joy, a 12.5m kauri launch purpose built for fishing. Feel free to bring your own refreshments and you're more than welcome to use the BBQ on board to cook up some lunch.

As you may have guessed from their name, Snapper Fishing Charters target Snapper, but their anglers frequently catch many different species such as Trevally, John Dory, Kahawai, Kingfish and even the odd shark.

They're a family business with more than 20 years' involvement in the maritime industry, and thousands of successful day trips out on the water. Take a look at their Facebook page for some great feedback and pictures from recent trips.

So whether you've never reeled in a big one, or you're an experienced angler, this treat from Snapper Fishing Charters is the catch of the day.
